Default A/c

I have a 2018 IS 300 Fsport and having issues with my a/c. One side will work fine but the other will blow out warm air. The car is still fairly new could this be a recharging issue?

^^ That seems odd. I am sorry to ask the obvious but you don't have "dual" zone activated I assume?!

Turn off the dual zone so both temp settings read the same. If you still have an issue, then sounds like what ever is the issue, should be covered under warranty.

^^ What he said - de-activate the dual zone and then what you have on the driver side and passenger side will be the same.

Please report back so we know if this helped.

Had this happen to me when I first got my car and the passenger side would blow warm air regardless of temp or dual zone on or off. Dealer reset the system and it fixed it.
